Chandra/HETG and NuSTAR Observations of V750 Ara, a Cas-type Star
David P. Huenemoerder, Sean J. Gunderson, Richard Ignace +6
We present 197 ks HETG and 95 ks NuSTAR spectra of the Cas-type object V750 Ara. The high-resolution X-ray spectra show that the target is similar to other objects of this cl…
X-ray Polarimetry of Accreting White Dwarfs: A Case Study of EX Hydrae
Sean J. Gunderson, Swati Ravi, Herman L. Marshall +5
We present the first first X-ray polarization measurements of a white dwarf, the intermediate polar EX Hya. We measured significant polarization only in the 2 -- 3 keV energy band…
A Time-Dependent Spectral Analysis of Cassiopeiae
Sean J. Gunderson, David P. Huenemoerder, José M. Torrejón +7
We investigated the temporal and spectral features of Cassiopeiae's X-ray emission within the context of the white dwarf accretion hypothesis. We find that the variabilities p…
Chandra HETG X-ray Spectra and Variability of Aqr, a Cas-type Be star
David P. Huenemoerder, Pragati Pradhan, Claude R. Canizares +7
High-resolution X-ray spectra of Aqr, a Cas-type star, obtained with the Chandra/HETG grating spectrometer, revealed emission lines of H-like ions of Mg, Si, S, and Fe,…
